9、t remember the first time one of my children told me, “I hate you.” I can, however, tell you that it still happens occasionally, but it doesnt bother me. As their father, I often say things that are unpopular. If they hate me once in a while, I know Im doing a good job.There are three other words th
10、at I wont allow in my house, however. Last week, I was watching my older son play with a paper airplane. After he accidentally threw it into a wall and it came apart, his eyes welled up with tears.“I hate myself,” he said. It wasnt the first time hed said it, and I was concerned that hed started to
11、actually believe it.I knelt down next to him and made him look into my eyes. I told him that I never wanted to hear those words again, and that he needed to respect himself.The difference between your kid telling you they hate you and them saying they hate themselves is that, five minutes later, the
12、yve already forgotten they “hate you”. Self-hate is much more potentially poisonous and for young people, it can linger into the rest of their life.Kids who start to believe they hate themselves sometimes struggle to form new friendships. As teenagers, they avoid the chance to connect with a potenti
13、al love interest, because they assume theyll be rejected. And as adults, they might choose not to apply for the dream job because they assume it wont work out.I know this is true, because I didnt have a high opinion of myself as a child. I found myself struggling in many areas, and Id hate to see my
14、 children suffer the same fate.Sometimes, words are just words. But some words can make the kind of impact Id very much like to avoid for my children. I dont fear strong language; I fear language that makes us weak.21How did the author feel on hearing his kids saying “I hate you”?ADepressed. BAnnoye
15、d. CUnconcerned. DExcited.22Why wont the author allow the three words “I hate myself”?ABecause the impact of thinking in this way is negative.BBecause it hurts parents to hear their kids saying so.CBecause it doesnt make any sense to blame oneself.DBecause the impoliteness of saying so is unbearable
16、.23Which of the following can replace the underlined word “linger” in paragraph 5?Acome to an end Bcontinue to exist Cbegin to change Dbecome out of date B Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to sign
17、als from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures stress the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary t
18、o spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries, like the UK or France, people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafe rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in s
19、ome cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion, instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too
20、 much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values, however, Germans prefer to get
21、down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can unders
22、tand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.24The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _.Atoo many words are of no useBthe English prefer to make long speechesCeven talk and silence can be culturally differentDpeople
23、from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature25According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?ABy accepting different habits. BBy recognizing different values.CBy sharing different ways of life. DBy speaking each others languages.26What would be the best title

On the final step of all these deliveries, called the last mile, humans on bicycles, motorized scooters ( 电动车) or large delivery trucks
27、 typically deliver packages. All the vehicles compete for space on busy urban streets. “Deliveries are trending upwards in all crowded city centers, and if city and state leaders dont start thinking about creative solutions like robot deliveries, we can expect even worse traffic jams,” says Paul Mac
28、kie, director of a transportation policy research center in Arlington.A study by this center found 73 percent of delivery vehicles in Arlington were parked outside of authorized areas, often blocking bike lanes and crosswalks. By moving the last step of deliveries from the road to the sidewalk, citi
29、es could reduce traffic jams and solve the parking problem entirely, Mackie says.Companies such as Amazon are not developing this delivery technology simply to clear up urban traffic. Self-driving vehicles and sidewalk robots could cut down last-mile delivery costs in cities by as much as 40 percent
30、, according to a 2018 report by a consultancy firm. A delivery robot can cost thousands of dollars to manufacture, and most currently require human management and conservation. But in the long run companies that use autonomous delivery vehicles in the next several years could end up saving billions
